I am the EDI Officer at the Department of Economics.
I have held a range of posts at the University and I have always been out at Oxford and I am very fortunate to have never received negative responses for being part of the LGBT+ community. Through being a visible Role Model, I am hoping to contribute to a welcoming and safe environment for all LGBT+ staff and students at the University. Please do reach out if you would like to receive support about being out in the workplace.
My wife and I have a daughter and I am particularly interested in speaking to anyone looking to receive advice on starting a rainbow family. I am non-binary (pronouns she / they) and would also be happy to talk to anyone who may be struggling with their gender identity.
I am Chair of the LGBT+ Advisory Group and I am a Harassment Advisor. Finally, I am an experienced mentor and I'm always happy to have a chat. You can reach me at: sarah.laseke@economics.ox.ac.uk.
